A large Atzeres Tefilah took place in Flatbush on Sunday. The NYPD tells YWN that approximately 4,000 people attended.
This gathering was held on afternoon on Avenue L and East 9th Street – near Landau’s Shul.
Mincha was led by HaRav Eliezer Ginsberg of the Mirer Yeshiva, followed by Divrei Chizuk delivered by HaRav Elya Brudny, and HaRav Dovid Ozeri.
Prominent Rabbanim of greater Flatbush led the assembled in words of Tehillim, including HaRav Hillel David, HaRav Yosef Frankel, HaRav Meyer Yedid, and others.
Security was provided by the NYPD and Flatbush Shomrim, who were there is great numbers, ensuring that everyone was safe.

When the police come to our protests, it is to protect us. When the police come to Arab protests, it is to protect the community from the protestors.
Do with this fact what you will.
It would have been appreciated if there had been a live hook-up for those who were not able to attend
It is so heartwarming seeing Yidden (Kein Yirbu) on the other side of the pond davening for the Yidden here in Eretz Yisroel. Makes me proud to be a Yid even more.
ralphz There was one on TorahAnytime, but they chose (in order to boost attendance at the actual event, I hear) to avoid advertising it. It was still watched live by well over a thousand people.
